After I died, they cried in the live studio

Chapter 55 The storm is not over yet
The three of them supported each other and stood in this desolate desert, with mixed feelings in their hearts. Although they had experienced a thrilling sandstorm, they were glad that they were still alive.

"What should we do now?" Alice asked. Her voice was a little hoarse and there was a hint of confusion in her eyes.

Nancy looked around and thought for a moment before saying, "Let's dig the car out first and see if it can still be used. If the car can still be started, we will leave here as soon as possible and find a safe place."

So the three of them started to clean the dust from the car. They scraped the sand bit by bit with their hands, their nails were filled with dust, and their hands were rubbed red, but they did not complain at all, and had only one thought in their minds: leave here as soon as possible.

After some effort, the car was finally cleared out. Nancy tried to start the car, and fortunately, it started normally. The three cheered, as if they saw hope of survival.

They got in the car and drove slowly through the desert. Nancy carefully steered the wheel to avoid the sand dunes and sand pits that had been changed by the sandstorm. Along the way, they saw many dead bodies of plants and animals destroyed by the sandstorm, and they couldn't help feeling sad.

After driving for a while, they finally saw a small village in the distance. The houses in the village were scattered and orderly, and smoke was rising from the chimneys. It was a peaceful and peaceful scene. The three of them were filled with joy, and they sped up and drove towards the village.

When the car drove into the village, the villagers cast curious eyes on them. Nancy stopped the car and explained their situation to a villager. The villagers were very enthusiastic and lent a hand, providing them with food and water and arranging a place for them to rest.

In the village, the three felt the long-lost warmth and peace. They washed off the dust on their bodies, ate a hot meal, and their tired bodies and minds were greatly comforted.

After the test of the sandstorm, the friendship between Alice, Sang Shuwan and Nancy became even deeper. They knew how important it was to accompany and support each other at the critical moment of life and death.

After a day's rest in the village, the three decided to continue their journey. Although they had experienced an ordeal, they were not intimidated, but instead became more determined to explore the desert.

They bid farewell to the enthusiastic villagers and set out on their journey again. This time, they were more fully prepared, with awe of the desert and expectation of the unknown, they continued to move forward into the depths of the desert to explore the beauty and mystery hidden in the desert.

As the car slowly moved forward, the scenery of the desert appeared before their eyes again. The vast sand dunes shone with golden light under the sun, like a golden ocean. Their hearts were filled with awe of nature and longing for the future journey. They believed that in this magical desert, there would be more stories waiting for them to write.

After the sandstorm, the air in the village was filled with a faint smell of dust. Alice and Sang Shuwan sat in the simple wooden house, and although they felt a little regretful about the unfinished journey, they still had a peaceful smile on their faces.

Alice sighed softly and said, "I wanted to relax this time, but I didn't expect to encounter this sandstorm, and my schedule was disrupted." There was a hint of helplessness in her eyes, but not too much impatience.

Sang Shuwan nodded in agreement: "Yes, but this is also a special experience." She turned to look at Nancy beside her, her eyes full of friendliness, "Nancy, thanks to you this time, otherwise we really don't know what to do."

Nancy smiled and waved her hands: "We are all friends, it's too formal to say these things."

Alice went on, "Although we have to go back, I believe we will have opportunities to hang out together in the future. We need to arrange our work matters properly this time when we go back, but there's no need to be too anxious. Just do them one by one." Her tone was relaxed, without the anxiety she had before.

Sang Shuwan also agreed: "Yes, we can't push ourselves too hard because of work. This time when I go back, I plan to communicate with my agent first, turn down some unnecessary activities, and leave some time to adjust my state."

Nancy looked at them with admiration in her eyes: "I'm glad you think so. Work is important, but you also have to take care of yourself. If you go somewhere fun in the future, remember to call me."

Alice and Sang Shuwan smiled at each other and said in unison: "That's for sure!"

Afterwards, the three of them helped the villagers do some things within their ability to thank them for taking them in. During the work, they laughed constantly, and their friendship became deeper inadvertently.

When leaving the village, Alice and Sang Shuwan did not go to work immediately, but stayed in a nearby town with Nancy for a day. They strolled in the streets of the town, admired the local customs, tasted the special food, took photos, and enjoyed this rare leisure time.

Alice and Sang Shuwan did not set out on their journey home until the last moment of separation. With full of memories and anticipation for the next reunion, they faced the upcoming work with a calm attitude. They knew that life has both distant poetry and immediate responsibilities, and they would find a balance between the two to make their lives more wonderful.

Sang Shuwan and Alice walked into the cabin and walked along the aisle to find seats, their eyes showing relaxation and tiredness after the desert trip. Sang Shuwan raised his eyes inadvertently and saw a familiar figure in front of him, and couldn't help but blurt out: "Yi Shuqi, why are you here?"

Yi Shuqi turned around upon hearing the voice and saw Sang Shuwan. A bright smile instantly appeared on her face and she responded in surprise: "Shuwan, what a coincidence! I just finished a job and was about to go back."

In the prosperous and complex world of the entertainment industry, everyone has their own stories and thoughts. The gears of fate turn quietly and inadvertently, tightly entwining the lives of several people together.

Alice and Sang Shuwan ended their unforgettable trip to the XJ Desert and set off on their return journey. As they entered the cabin and walked slowly along the aisle to find their seats, Sang Shuwan's eyes were suddenly attracted by a familiar figure in front of her. Her eyes widened instantly, and a look of surprise appeared on her face. She then quickly walked forward and shouted, "Shu Qi!"

The person turned around and it was Yi Shuqi. When she saw Sang Shuwan, she also smiled brightly and responded enthusiastically: "Shuwan, what a coincidence! I just finished work and was about to go back to BJ."

Alice followed Sang Shuwan and when she heard the name "Yi Shuqi", she couldn't help but look at him curiously. When she saw him, her steps suddenly stopped and a look of shock appeared on her face. The eyebrows and features of Yi Shuqi in front of her were surprisingly similar to Sang Shuwan, especially the high nose bridge and slightly upturned corners of the mouth, as if they were carved from the same mold. Alice couldn't help but exclaimed in her heart: "No wonder Chu Ling made a mistake, they are too similar!"

Yi Shuqi noticed Alice's strangeness, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, and he looked at Sang Shuwan and asked, "Who is this?"

Sang Shuwan quickly introduced: "This is Alice, my very good friend. We just came back from a trip to the XJ desert."

Yi Shuqi extended her hand enthusiastically, with a friendly smile on her face: "Hello, Alice, nice to meet you. I often hear Shu Wan talk about the entertainment industry, and I have always been curious."

Alice came back to her senses, hurriedly held Yi Shuqi's hand, and said with a smile: "Hello, Yi Shuqi, I've heard of you a long time ago, but I didn't expect to meet you here today." While speaking, her eyes still wandered involuntarily on Yi Shuqi's face, trying to find more similarities.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, the three returned to their seats. Alice sat by the window, looking at the tarmac outside the window, but her heart was not at peace. She secretly pondered the similar appearance of Sang Shuwan and Yi Shuqi, and couldn't help but worry: "Will this cause any misunderstandings or troubles? Especially the relationship with Chu Ling, will it become more complicated?" Sang Shuwan sat next to her, chatting with Yi Shuqi across the aisle from time to time, sharing their experiences during the trip, and was unaware of Alice's inner turmoil. The plane slowly started, Alice took a deep breath, and decided to put these worries aside for the time being and enjoy the flight time first.

When Sang Shuwan returned home, she was exhausted, as if all her energy had been drained away. She dragged her heavy suitcase into the house, not even having the energy to turn on the light, and threw the suitcase aside without even changing her shoes. She walked straight to the sofa and collapsed on it.

The thrilling scenes of the desert trip kept flashing in her mind, as well as the unexpected encounter with Yi Shuqi on the plane. She recalled Yi Shuqi's face, her eyebrows, her expression, and they were surprisingly similar to hers. Especially when Yi Shuqi smiled, the arc of her mouth was exactly the same as hers. Sang Shuwan couldn't help but feel a ripple in her heart. She knew very well that in the entertainment industry, such similarities might lead to some unexpected things.

She recalled the complicated look Chu Ling had when he looked at her. Was it because of her resemblance to Yi Shuqi that Chu Ling had those special actions? Once this thought came into her mind, it could not be shaken off. Sang Shuwan rubbed her temples, trying to ease her tense nerves, but the feeling of fatigue still tightly entangled her.

The sky outside the window gradually darkened, and the room became dim and blurry. Sang Shuwan did not have the strength to get up and turn on the light. She just lay quietly on the sofa, her thoughts wandering between past experiences and future worries. She knew that she had to adjust her state as soon as possible to deal with the upcoming unknowns in the entertainment industry, but at this moment, she just wanted to immerse herself in this moment of tranquility, even if it was only for a short time, it would give her tired body and mind a chance to breathe.

After an unknown amount of time, Sang Shuwan heard the sound of the key turning in the door lock, and she knew that Jiang Cimu had returned. The door was suddenly opened, and Jiang Cimu stood there with a warm look on his face, his eyes full of joy and expectation, as if he had been waiting for a long time. The moment he saw Sang Shuwan, his smile became brighter, and he hurried forward to take the luggage from her hand, saying, "Shuwan, you are finally back. I have been thinking about you, worried that you might encounter something bad outside."

Sang Shuwan looked at Jiang Cimu's enthusiasm, and she suddenly felt guilty. She recalled the time when she called Jiang Cimu in a panic during the sandstorm in the desert. The fear of life and death at that time made her say those words that seemed to be a farewell. She knew that Jiang Cimu must have been frightened for a long time. Moreover, during this trip, she was so immersed in playing and relaxing that she didn't have time to contact Jiang Cimu, leaving him worried about her at home.

She opened her mouth and wanted to say something to express her apology, but her throat seemed to be blocked by something. After a long while, she squeezed out a sentence: "Ci Mu, I'm back. This trip... made you worry." There was a hint of hoarseness in her voice, and there was guilt that was difficult to conceal.

Jiang Cimu didn't care at all. He patted her shoulder gently and said with a smile, "It's good that you're back and safe. As long as you're okay, I'll be relieved. Come into the house and rest. You must be exhausted."

Sang Shuwan followed Jiang Ci Mu into the house. With every step she took, the feeling of guilt became stronger and stronger. She secretly made up her mind that she must spend more time with Jiang Ci Mu in the future and not let him worry about her like this anymore.

Sang Shuwan looked at Jiang Cimu's concerned and uncomplaining expression, and the guilt in her heart became stronger. She quickly turned around and took out the carefully prepared gift from her suitcase. It was a handicraft with unique local characteristics that she accidentally found during her trip to the desert. It had a unique shape and a strong exotic flavor.

She held the gift in both hands, walked up to Jiang Ci Mu, and said embarrassedly: "Ci Mu, this is a gift I brought you. Although it's not worth much money, I think it's very interesting. I hope you like it." There was a hint of expectation in her eyes, mixed with a little uneasiness. She hoped that this gift could make up for the debt she owed him.

Jiang Cimu was stunned at first, then his eyes were full of surprise. He took the gift with a smile and looked at it carefully. The handicraft shone with a special luster under the light. The more Jiang Cimu looked at it, the more he liked it. He praised it repeatedly: "Shu Wan, this gift is great. It looks very special. I am really happy that you thought of bringing me a gift."

Sang Shuwan felt a little better after listening to his words, but she still felt that the guilt was hard to completely dissipate. She said softly: "As long as you like it, it's fine. A lot of things happened when I went out this time. Sometimes I didn't have time to contact you properly. I feel very sorry for you."

Jiang Cimu put down the gift, gently held Sang Shuwan's hand, and said softly: "What are you talking about? It's best that you come back safely, and I'm so happy that you have such a thoughtful gift. Don't think about it. It's most important to have a good rest."

Sang Shuwan looked at Jiang Cimu's sincere look and felt warm in her heart. She secretly told herself that she must cherish the person in front of her more in the future and not let him suffer any grievances again.

Jiang Cimu gently put down the gift in his hand, took a step forward, opened his arms, and hugged Sang Shuwan tightly. He hugged her so tightly, as if he wanted to pass on all his thoughts and worries during this period to her through this hug. Sang Shuwan's cheek was pressed against Jiang Cimu's chest, and she could clearly hear his steady and strong heartbeat, which gradually calmed her originally flustered and guilty heart.

Jiang Cimu lowered his head and said gently in Sang Shuwan's ear: "Shuwan, do you know? In fact, having you by my side is the best gift. In the days when you were away, my heart was always empty, always thinking about whether you had encountered any troubles, whether you ate well, and whether you slept well. Now that you are back safely, as long as I can hold you like this, I feel extremely satisfied, and nothing else matters."

Sang Shuwan felt a sore nose and tears in her eyes when she heard these affectionate words. She unconsciously put her hands around Jiang Cimu's waist and responded to the warm hug with a choked voice: "Cimu, I will never let you worry about me again. During this trip, I understand how important you are to me. I will cherish every moment we spend together."

The two of them just hugged each other quietly, as if time had stopped for their deep affection. The room was quiet and warm, with only the sound of each other's breathing and the gentle heartbeat intertwined, telling of the attachment and deep affection at the moment. The fatigue from the journey and the guilt in the heart gradually dissipated in this warm embrace.

In another part of the city, in a warm and elegantly decorated room, Yi Shuqi was lazily leaning on the sofa, flipping through a magazine, trying to relax herself from the busy work rhythm. At this moment, the screen of the mobile phone on the coffee table beside her suddenly lit up, accompanied by a crisp prompt tone, indicating that a text message had been received.

Yi Shuqi frowned slightly, put down the magazine, and reached for the phone. After unlocking the screen, the moment she saw the sender of the text message, a trace of doubt flashed in her eyes. She tapped her finger and the content of the text message came into view. The few short lines of text seemed to carry a mysterious power, making Yi Shuqi's face gradually become solemn. She sat up straight unconsciously and read the text message again and again. Many speculations surged in her mind, and her brows became more and more frowned. She muttered to herself: "What does this mean..."

The room was so quiet that only her light breathing could be heard. Yi Shuqi stared at the screen of her mobile phone, lost in thought, trying to figure out the hidden message behind the text message and the intention of the other party sending it. The originally relaxed atmosphere was broken at this moment, and a subtle and tense atmosphere began to spread in the room.

At the same time, the sky was covered with dark clouds, weighing heavily on the city, like a huge lead plate, making it hard to breathe, as if a storm was coming. Outside Chu Ling's villa, the wind whistled through the garden, rustling the trees and blowing the branches to and fro, as if struggling helplessly in the wind and groaning in pain. The flowers in the garden were also blown to pieces, the petals drifting in the wind, a mess, completely losing their former beauty and vitality, leaving only broken branches and leaves trembling in the wind.

Inside the villa, the lights were dim and cold, casting strange shadows on the walls, as if ghosts were hiding in the darkness, quietly spying on everything in the house. Chu Ling stood in the middle of the living room, his tall figure stretched out by the lights, like an insurmountable giant, adding to the innate sense of oppression on him. He was wearing a black suit, well-cut, which set off his slender and tall figure. Every subtle movement exuded an unquestionable majesty, as if he was the master of this dark space.

Sang Jiuyue walked into the villa tremblingly. The door slammed shut behind her, frightening her whole body and causing her heart to skip a beat. She looked up at Chu Ling and forced a smile on her face, but that smile seemed particularly stiff and unnatural in this gloomy atmosphere, like a broken mask barely hanging on his face. Chu Ling looked down at Sang Jiuyue, with a cold arc at the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were full of contempt and disdain, as if he was looking at an insignificant ant. He said indifferently: "Sang Jiuyue, you are really brave to appear in front of me. I thought you should have some self-knowledge and hide in a corner without showing your head. I didn't expect you to dare to come to my door." His voice was low and magnetic, but with a strong sense of sarcasm. Every word was like a sharp knife, stabbing straight at Sang Jiuyue, echoing in this silent room, adding a bit of chill.

Sang Jiuyue's face instantly turned as pale as paper, bloodless. She subconsciously took a step back, but still forced herself to say, "Prince Chu, I... I came here today because I really have something important to tell you. You see, I was wrong before, but this time is really different. Please give me a chance and just listen to what I have to say." Her voice trembled slightly, with a hint of crying, and her eyes were filled with panic and fear. Under Chu Ling's powerful aura, her previous confidence had long disappeared without a trace. She could only smile cautiously, trying to use a humble gesture to soften Chu Ling's attitude. Her eyes seemed to be begging for Chu Ling's mercy.

Chu Ling sneered, and the laughter was particularly harsh in the empty room. He took a step forward, and the powerful pressure made Sang Jiuyue almost breathless, as if the air around her had been sucked dry: "Hmph, important things? What qualifications do you think you have to talk to me about important things? Don't think I don't know about those little tricks you did before. Those tricks you did behind your back are nothing more than trying to make personal gains for yourself. Do you think I'm blind?" There was a dangerous light flashing in his eyes, like a beast teasing its prey, enjoying Sang Jiuyue's fear and uneasiness, and every word was like a blockbuster bomb, exploding in Sang Jiuyue's ears.

Fine beads of sweat appeared on Sang Jiuyue's forehead, and beads as big as beans slid down her cheeks. She clenched her hands tightly together, her nails digging deeply into her palms, and tried to calm herself down: "Prince Chu, this time is really different. I accidentally discovered something that may be very important to you." As she spoke, she took out her mobile phone from her bag with trembling hands and handed it to Chu Ling, "Look, this is Yi Shuqi's contact information. She sent you a message and asked you to meet in the park tomorrow afternoon."

Chu Ling was slightly startled, with a hint of surprise in his eyes. He didn't expect that Yi Shuqi would be involved. He took the phone, looked at the message on the screen, frowned slightly, and his eyes became a little complicated, as if he was thinking about something. After a moment, he raised his head, looked at Sang Jiuyue, and said coldly: "Where did you get it from?"

Sang Jiuyue quickly explained: "I... I got it by chance. I know that you have always had some special attention on Yi Shuqi, so I hurried to tell you. Prince Chu, I really want to help you this time. I hope you can forgive my previous mistakes for this reason." Her eyes were full of expectation, hoping to take this opportunity to regain Chu Ling's trust.

Chu Ling was silent for a while, then threw the phone back to Sang Jiuyue, his eyes still with a hint of indifference: "Humph, I'll trust you this time. But don't think that this can completely make up for what you did before."

Sang Jiuyue breathed a sigh of relief and nodded quickly: "I understand, Prince Chu, I will behave well in the future and never make the same mistake again."

Chu Ling waved his hand impatiently: "Okay, go away and stop being an eyesore here."

Sang Jiuyue nodded again, then turned and left in a hurry. Her back looked a little lonely in the dim light, but a hint of imperceptible pride flashed in her eyes, as if she was secretly happy that her plan had succeeded.

At this moment, a flash of lightning streaked across the night sky outside the window, briefly illuminating the entire room, followed by a deafening thunder.

Yi Shuqi sat in front of the window, her fingers sliding across the screen of her mobile phone, finally stopping at Sang Shuwan's number. She took a deep breath and pressed the dial button. There were beeps from the other end of the phone, and every beep seemed to be beating at her heart.

"Hello?" Sang Shuwan's voice was filled with a hint of confusion and fatigue.

"Shu Wan, it's me, Yi Shuqi." Yi Shuqi's voice was a little hoarse. She paused and continued, "I want to talk to you. A lot of things have happened recently. I think we should meet."

Sang Shuwan frowned slightly, feeling uneasy: "Okay, where shall we meet?"

The two of them met at a quiet cafe. Sang Shuwan arrived early and found a seat in a corner. After a while, Yi Shuqi hurried over, wearing sunglasses and a hat, covering herself tightly.

"Shu Wan, sorry to have kept you waiting for so long." Yi Shuqi took off her sunglasses, revealing her eyes with heavy dark circles and a haggard face.

"It's okay. What's wrong with you? You don't look well." Sang Shuwan asked with concern.

Yi Shuqi smiled bitterly: "It's all because of what happened recently. Ever since I met you on the plane last time, my life has become a mess. First I received that inexplicable text message, and then I was schemed by Sang Jiuyue. I felt like I was trapped in a huge whirlpool and couldn't get out of it."

Sang Shuwan's heart tightened: "What happened to that text message? Have you found out who sent it?"

Yi Shuqi shook her head: "No, the other party is very cautious and the number is disposable. I really don't know what to do now. I'm worried that this will affect my career and even my life."

Sang Shuwan pondered for a moment: "I am also worried, after all, we look so similar. I am afraid that Sang Jiuyue will use this to create more trouble."

"I thought so too. So I came to you to see if we can work together to think of a solution to these problems." Yi Shuqi looked at Sang Shuwan with a hint of expectation in her eyes.

Sang Shuwan nodded: "Okay, I'll try my best. Do you have any new work arrangements recently?"

Yi Shuqi sighed: "I have a few endorsements and scripts in discussion, but because of these things, I don't have the energy to prepare. I'm afraid I will lose these opportunities because of negative news."

"You can't be like this. Especially at this time, you have to cheer up. You can't let Sang Jiuyue succeed." Sang Shuwan encouraged.

The two chatted for a long time. When they came out of the cafe, it was getting dark. Yi Shuqi seemed to be in a better mood. She looked at Sang Shuwan gratefully: "Thank you, Shuwan. After talking to you, I feel less anxious."

Sang Shuwan smiled and said, "We look so alike, it can be considered a kind of fate. If anything happens in the future, just take care of each other."

However, what they didn't know was that the paparazzi had secretly photographed this meeting. The next day, the entertainment news headline was "Yi Shuqi secretly met with a mysterious woman, who looked strikingly similar", and the accompanying picture was a photo of the two talking in a cafe. Public opinion was immediately in an uproar, and all kinds of speculations and rumors flooded in.

Sang Jiuyue saw the news and laughed triumphantly: "Humph, Yi Shuqi, let's see how you end up this time."

Sang Shuwan was not having a good time either. Her phone was bombarded with calls, and various media and friends were asking about her relationship with Yi Shuqi. Jiang Cimu looked at the exhausted Sang Shuwan and said distressedly, "Shuwan, why don't we go out and hide for a while, and come back after this matter has calmed down."

Sang Shuwan shook his head: "No, I can't escape. I want to face these problems with Shu Qi and find out the truth."

Therefore, Sang Shuwan and Yi Shuqi decided to join forces and, with the help of Chu Ling, launch an investigation to uncover the conspiracy behind the scenes, clear their names, and put an end to the turmoil in the entertainment industry. But they didn't know that there were more challenges waiting for them ahead, and their fates were tied together in this dispute.

In this storm in the entertainment industry, the relationship between Yi Shuqi and Sang Shuwan has become the focus of everyone's attention. To everyone's surprise, Yi Shuqi did not doubt Sang Shuwan because of public opinion. On the contrary, after experiencing the initial panic and confusion, she chose to believe in the rare fate and sincerity between the two.

Yi Shuqi knows very well how difficult it is to find someone who treats her sincerely in this circle full of calculations and hypocrisy. Sang Shuwan's anxious explanation and sincere eyes when facing misunderstandings made her firmly believe that Sang Shuwan did not betray her. Moreover, she also understands that if the two of them are pushed to the forefront, fighting alone will only give those with ill intentions an opportunity to take advantage, such as Sang Jiuyue.

So, Yi Shuqi made a bold decision. She took the initiative to contact Sang Shuwan and proposed that the two of them face all this together, go in and out of various occasions together, and use actions to show the outside world their unity. Sang Shuwan readily agreed. She also wanted to clear her own grievances and protect Yi Shuqi from further harm.

When they first appeared together in public, it caused a stir. Paparazzi surrounded them, flash cameras flashed non-stop, and all kinds of questions came at them: "What is your relationship?" "Do you have any new cooperation plans for this meeting?" Yi Shuqi and Sang Shuwan held hands, smiled, and did not respond too much, but expressed their attitudes with their tacit understanding and calmness.

They attend various events together, whether it is a fashion dinner or a charity performance, they are inseparable. During the activities, they support each other and help each other deal with various emergencies. Yi Shuqi uses her experience in the entertainment industry to introduce Sang Shuwan to people and share tips on dealing with the media; Sang Shuwan uses her optimism and strength to dispel the haze in Yi Shuqi's heart, allowing her to feel warmth and strength in difficult situations.

As time went by, people began to realize that their relationship was not as full of conspiracy and calculation as the outside world had speculated. Some careful fans and media noticed that the care and concern they showed inadvertently was so natural and did not seem to be fake. Slowly, the direction of public opinion began to change, and some positive voices gradually emerged: "Maybe they are really just friends who look alike and were maliciously used by others."

However, after seeing all this, Sang Jiuyue was furious. She originally thought that Yi Shuqi would turn against Sang Shuwan, so that she could reap the benefits and continue to suppress Yi Shuqi to consolidate her position in the entertainment industry. But unexpectedly, the development of things was completely beyond her expectations.

"How is this possible? How could Yi Shuqi not suspect Sang Shuwan? What on earth are they doing?" Sang Jiuyue paced back and forth in her room, muttering to herself. She was unwilling to fail like this, so she began to plan a new conspiracy, trying to stir up the conflict between Yi Shuqi and Sang Shuwan again, letting the storm in the entertainment industry continue to rage, while she herself waited in the dark for the next opportunity to strike, hoping to completely defeat her opponent.

Yi Shuqi held her phone tightly, and on the screen was the mysterious text message from Sang Jiuyue. Her eyes revealed a hint of entanglement and uneasiness. On the one hand, she knew that Sang Jiuyue was cunning and unscrupulous, and this invitation was probably another carefully designed trap; on the other hand, her curiosity about unknown secrets and her concerns about her own situation made it difficult for her to ignore this text message. After hesitating for a long time, she finally decided to go to the appointment without telling Chu Ling. She didn't want Chu Ling to worry too much, and she also hoped to solve the entanglement with Sang Jiuyue alone and completely cut off this endless trouble.

She carefully selected a low-key coat, put on a hat and a mask, trying to hide from others, and then went to the agreed location alone. It was a slightly remote cafe. The afternoon sun shone through the mottled leaves at the door of the store, but it could not dispel the haze in Yi Shuqi's heart.

When Yi Shuqi stepped into the cafe, she saw Sang Jiuyue sitting in the corner. Sang Jiuyue looked up and saw her, with a barely perceptible smug smile on her face, and then stood up and greeted, "Shuqi, you're here, come and sit down."

Yi Shuqi approached cautiously, sat down slowly, and said coldly: "Sang Jiuyue, just tell me what you want to say. I don't have that much time to play with you."

Sang Jiuyue chuckled, took out a document from her bag, and pushed it in front of Yi Shuqi: "Take a look, this is some explosive information about Chu Ling, I think you should be very interested."

Yi Shuqi frowned, but did not reach out for the document: "What do you want to do? Why do you always keep pestering me and Chu Ling?"

A trace of jealousy and resentment flashed in Sang Jiuyue's eyes: "Humph, because I like Chu Ling, I have been by his side for so many years, but since you appeared, he only has eyes for you. Don't even think about getting what I can't get."

Yi Shuqi was shocked. She didn't expect Sang Jiuyue to have such a deep obsession with Chu Ling. At this moment, the door of the cafe was suddenly pushed open, and a familiar figure appeared at the door - it was Sang Shuwan.

It turned out that after Sang Shuwan learned that Yi Shuqi went to the appointment alone, she was very worried and followed quietly. She was worried that Yi Shuqi would encounter an accident, and she also knew Sang Jiuyue's sinister intentions, so she decided to protect her secretly.

When Sang Jiyue saw Sang Shuwan, his face instantly turned gloomy: "Why are you here?"

Sang Shuwan walked forward, stood beside Yi Shuqi, and said firmly: "I won't let you hurt Shuqi. Do you think those little tricks of yours will succeed?"

Yi Shuqi glanced at Sang Shuwan gratefully: "Thank you, Shuwan, I shouldn't have come here alone without telling you."

Sang Shuwan shook his head slightly: "We are friends. Now is not the time to talk about this. Let's solve the problem at hand first."

At this time, the atmosphere in the cafe became tense, and the three people were in a stalemate. Outside the cafe, a black car slowly stopped, and Chu Ling got out of the car, his eyes revealing a trace of anxiety and worry. It turned out that after he found out that Yi Shuqi and Sang Shuwan were not at home, he found this place through the positioning of his mobile phone.

Chu Ling walked into the cafe and saw the scene inside. He immediately understood everything. He walked straight to Yi Shuqi, protected her behind him, and looked at Sang Jiuyue coldly: "Sang Jiuyue, how long are you going to make trouble? I have been tolerant of you. Don't hurt Shuqi again, otherwise I will not let you go."
